1843  Simons Lucas gave 411.7 acres of the eastern section of Rice Hope to his brother Henry E. Lucas. Henry would name his property Woodside Plantation (5, p. 656).

Circa 1865  Simons Lucas's oldest son, William Johnstone Lucas, became the owner of Rice Hope upon returning from serving the Civil War (5, p. 656).

1896  William Johnstone Lucas's daughter, Mary Ashe Lucas, married Frederick Wentworth Ford. Ford purchased the rice plantation from William and ran it until 1908 when a flood destroyed the rice fields. He tried to rebuild the fields but his efforts proved futile and he moved his operation to his family's Peru Plantation (5, p. 656).

At the time of Francis Kinloch's death in 1767, his probate inventory included a small building on the property. It is unclear if this building was a house or more of a plantation office. This building would be lost to fire (1).
